Coronary microvascular dysfunction is associated with poor glycemic control amongst female diabetics with chest pain and non-obstructive coronary artery disease.

After stratifying female patients on the basis of their fasting serum glucose levels with a fasting glucose > 140 mg/dL correlating with suboptimal glycemic control, a fasting glucose > 140 mg/dL was significantly associated with an abnormal CFRAdn Ratio: odds ratio (confidence interval) 3.36 (1.24–9.07) p = 0.017, though was not significantly associated with an abnormal %ΔCBFAch. Amongst males, HbA1c was negatively associated with an abnormal %ΔCBFAch with borderline significance: odds ratio (confidence interval) 0.67 (0.46–1.00) p = 0.049, though was not significantly associated with an abnormal CFRAdn Ratio.
